BIOTERRORISM - ANOTHER KIND OF WAR
Journal Title: Impact Strategic - Year 2005, Vol 15, Issue 3
Abstract
After September, 11, 2001, the threat related to terrorist attacks against the humanity doesn’t seem any more just a scenario beyond imagination. The nuclear, chemical or biological terrorism doesn’t belong to science-fiction. According to some experts, the risk of using such weapons is getting bigger and bigger, taking into consideration the increase of inter ethnic and religious violence and the break of human rights. The international treaties that concern such kind of weapons don’t offer enough control measures. That is why is necessary for both states and NGOs to involve. With all the US mobilization against the countries considered terrorist, the threat of bioterrorism seems to be a restless one for the future.
